  • Some people can get lumps in their throats upon he hearing "Amo Bishop Roden", for one.
  • There is also "Dayvan Cowboy."
  • They focus on different aspects of this with each album
    • Music Has the Right to Children is based on nostalgia for childhood.
    • The Campfire Headphase leans more toward Tears of Joy.
    • And Geogaddi as a whole accomplishes the impressive feat of being both longingly, heartrendingly nostalgic and fucking terrifying, especially "1969."
